Cathedrals Express to Stratford 22/04/17

Times for 34046's trip to Warwickshire on Saturday: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/sea...2/0000-2359?stp=WVS&show=all&order=wtt&toc=WR

Appears the loco will be serviced and turned at Tyseley instead of on the Hatton triangle.

 

And the trip apparently starts and finishes at Langley rather than Paddington.

 

Dare I say it? Why not. For those who remember, Steam Dreams is becoming the new 'Days Out Ltd.'!!!

 

Looking good at Didcot North Junction today!

 

Engineering work between Paddington and Ealing Broadway closing some lines, according to National Rail Enquiries

The headcode suggests it's on the North Cornwall Line!

 

No diesel on the back.

Clattercote farm, between Banbury and Leamington.

Nice shots at Clattercote Rick, you must have been one of those I saw up in the field. I stayed down on the foot crossing, was ok but not as nice a view of the landscape.

 

Thanks, not a place I've been to but one to put in the memory bank

 

A good show from 34052 yesterday, the light pacific seemed to run well all day ! Hope you enjoy =)

Rather disappointing at Wilmcote as it approached regulator shut and braking, only accelerating once clear of the platform, How the hell can a Bulleid have a gauging restriction where Hall pass regularly ?!.
